There's not a whole lot out there about the Eibach Pro Kit for our xBs. I think there's only a couple of us on this forum that have them. It seems people usually go for the TRDs or the NF210s. I got these because somebody local was selling them after he switched to K-Sport coilovers. The amount of drop is 1" front.1.2" rear. Unfortunately I didn't take 'before' measurements, but based on what others have posted I think the drop is as advertised. They ride great and dips and speedbumps are not a problem. This is the most subtle drop on the market and seems like a winner for a daily driver who often carries passengers/cargo in the back.

I'm thinking 18s now...

 

nice
yea i have had mine since 2days after i got my car so like 4 months now
and are very nice
pair with hotchkis sway kit you will feel a nice handling improvement
after a lil while the springs will wear in a lil so ride will lower even more
very nice look over stock

 

rockthebeef, I'm really glad you like it, but I'm glad I went with the NF210's. You're still looking a little high on the a$$ end, I think it needs the extra 1/2" of drop on the rear that the Tanabe's provide. I almost never have passengers or much extra weight. Extra bulk yes (need the space) but extra weight, no.

More power to ya!; no pun intended, at least not initially (we could all use more power).

 

I agree the rear is still too high but maybe give it a few more weeks and see if it settles more.

 

yea it will settle alot more
mine did
looks really nice for a 1" drop

 

You guys may think they settle but Eibach and Tein, good brands do not settle much or at all because they are progressive wound and never heated. I may be wrong but thats what brands like above and Tanabe advertise. At the most ur gonna get .1 or .2" nothin noticable. Both my cars are lowered with either a EibachProKit and Tanabe lowering springs and I never had them settle after install.

 

I don't anticipate too much settling but I would welcome a little more. If I was to buy new springs I was going to go for the NF210 but these Eibachs were priced right and I couldn't pass them up. I actually wasn't looking to drop my car originally, but I guess hanging out here can have an effect on a guy... I am totally happy that the 4x4 look is gone.

 

And the 4x4 ride...

 

Yup. That's for sure.The handling is better but not as good as when I lowered a '97 Civic I had 10 years ago. I'm going to go with the TRD rear sway bar. That should make things pretty nice.

 

well i lowerd my xb2 with the prokit
and it did settle more
so yea....

 

so then what was the drop height right away and what did it end up being and how long did you wait?
